Pet Point Animal Hospital

We provide nose-to-tail comprehensive physical exams for pets of all ages and breeds. During your pet’s wellness visit, we evaluate every body system to catch potential health issues early—from heart and lung health to dental condition and mobility. Our thorough approach helps us identify and address concerns before they progress into more serious conditions.

We offer tailored wellness plans for puppies and kittens that include growth monitoring, parasite prevention, age-appropriate vaccinations (such as Distemper/Parvo/Rabies), socialization guidance, and early dental and behavioral health assessments. These packages ensure your furry family members start their lives off strong and healthy.

We prioritize older pets by recommending bi-annual physical exams and additional diagnostics like bloodwork, urinalysis, and imaging to track age-related conditions like arthritis, dental disease, or kidney function. Senior wellness care plans include tailored nutrition counseling, mobility support, and proactive pain management to extend your pet’s quality of life.

We provide core vaccinations for dogs (Rabies, Canine Distemper, Parvovirus) and cats (Rabies, Feline Panleukopenia, Calicivirus, Herpesvirus) according to AVMA/AAHA guidelines. These vaccines are essential for protecting pets from highly contagious and life-threatening diseases. Our personalized recommendations ensure your pet is protected based on lifestyle and risk factors.

As part of our preventive care, we test annually for heartworm disease—a potentially fatal parasitic infection—and provide year-round prevention (pills, injections, or topical treatments). Heartworm prevention is crucial because symptoms often go unnoticed until the disease is advanced, making testing and prophylax critical for all pets.

We offer a range of flea, tick, and parasite prevention solutions, including topical treatments, chewable medications, and collars. Our team evaluates your pet’s risks, environment, and potential allergies to prescribe the safest, most effective products. Fleas and ticks can carry dangerous diseases like Lyme and Ehrlicheiosis, and we prioritize year-round prevention.

We provide microchipping services to permanently identify your pet and reunite you if lost. Microchips are safe, quick to implant, and registered with a national database. Whether implanted during an annual exam or a routine spay/neuter, we ensure your pet’s chip info is up-to-date, and we educate you on how to register it properly for maximum protection.

We work with you to develop individually tailored nutrition plans based on your pet’s life stage, health conditions, allergies, or activity level. From weight management to managing diseases like diabetes or kidney failure, we help you choose high-quality foods or therapeutic diets that support your pet’s long-term health. We also provide guidance on safe homemade diets when needed.

During wellness exams, we test for intestinal parasites (like roundworms, hookworms, or whipworms) and prescribe targeted deworming regimens. Stool testing ensures we identify infections even when symptoms are absent, and we provide safe, effective treatments to keep your pet parasite-free. Prevention is especially important for puppies, kittens, and animals in multi-pet households.

We address behavioral issues (e.g., aggression, anxiety, separation problems, or house-soiling) with a holistic approach. After ruling out medical causes, we develop environmental adjustments, training plans, or medication protocols when necessary. We also collaborate with certified trainers or behaviorists for complex cases to ensure your pet thrives in your home.

Our in-house lab provides fast, accurate results for complete blood counts (CBCs) and chemistry panels to diagnose diabetes, liver/kidney disease, infections, and more. Early detection allows us to intervene sooner, helping pets avoid discomfort or complications. We also offer fecal and urine screens during wellness visits to rule out hidden issues like parasites or urinary tract infections.

We perform urinalysis as part of preventative care and diagnostics, checking for infections, crystals, blood, or kidney indicators. This non-invasive test helps us monitor conditions like cystitis or diabetes while identifying early signs of organ abnormalities. Regular screenings are especially important for senior pets or those prone to urinary issues.

Fecal tests screen for intestinal parasites (worms, giardia, coccidia) and digestive health conditions. We use microscopic lab techniques to provide accurate results quickly, helping us prescribe deworming or dietary changes. Fecal testing is critical for puppies, breeding animals, and pets with unexplained weight loss or diarrhea.

Our hospital utilizes cutting-edge digital X-ray technology to diagnose broken bones, arthritis, heart/lung conditions, and foreign objects ingested by pets. X-rays help us pinpoint abnormalities and collaborate with specialists for complex cases like orthopedic injuries. We prioritize minimal radiation exposure and ensure your pet’s comfort during imaging.

We offer point-of-care ultrasound services (POCUS) for emergency diagnostics (e.g., fluid in the abdomen) and routine evaluations (e.g., heart, reproductive organs). Detailed studies requiring a specialist can be sent for consultation, ensuring accurate diagnoses. Ultrasound is invaluable for detecting hidden pregnancy, organ abnormalities, or internal bleeding without invasive procedures.

Digital dental X-rays help us detect issues not visible during a regular exam, such as tooth root fractures, abscesses, or early-stage tooth decay. X-rays guide periodontal therapies, extractions, and endodontics (root canal-like treatments for pets). This imaging ensures thorough dental care that’s painless and safe under anesthesia.

We perform extractions for severely decayed, broken, or abscessed teeth under anesthesia for precise and pain-free removal. Our process uses careful suturing to minimize bleeding and ensures proper oral healing. Post-op, we prescribe antibiotics (if needed) and soft food diets to support recovery.

We provide extractions and oral surgeries for fractured teeth, advanced periodontal disease, or tumor removal under anesthesia. Detailed dental X-rays guide our procedures to ensure complete recovery. Follow-up care includes pain management and at-home dental education to maintain oral health.

We perform routine spay and neuter surgeries for puppies and kittens, addressing medical risks (e.g., infections, cancers) and preventing unwanted litters. Our procedures are performed under anesthesia following strict sterilization protocol. These surgeries are among the safest and most cost-effective ways to promote lifelong health for companion animals.

We treat acute injuries such as lacerations, punctures, or surgical wounds with sterilized sutures, glues, or stitches while preventing infections. Emergency cases are stabilized during office hours, with guidance for post-operative care and pain management. Our goal is to minimize scarring and promote swift healing through professional techniques.

Our team manages acute emergencies like poisonings (e.g., chocolate ingestion), trauma (e.g., hit-by-car), or severe illnesses until you arrive. We have a dedicated emergency team to administer fluids, induce vomiting (when safe), or stabilize vitals. If outside office hours, we refer you to an after-hours emergency clinic for immediate care.

We provide in-house hospitalization for pets requiring close treatment, including IV fluids, wound care, or post-surgery monitoring. Our facility is equipped with oxygen therapy and pain management to ensure your pet’s comfort during recovery. While the clinic is open 6 days a week, we facilitate emergency transfers if needed overnight.

IV fluids are administered for dehydration, illness, or post-anesthesia recovery. Our team monitors hydration status closely and tailors fluid types (e.g., lactated Ringer’s or crystalloids) to address specific health conditions like kidney disease or blood loss. Hospitalized pets receive fluids to support healing or stabilize critical cases.

We offer pain management for surgical recovery, injuries, arthritis, or chronic conditions using prescribed medications (pills, injectables, or transdermal gels). After procedures, we educate you about at-home pain relief and monitor your pet for optimal comfort during healing. Our team adjusts protocols based on individual tolerance.

If your pet ingests toxins like chocolates, human medications, or plants, we provide emergency care, including inducing vomiting (if safe), activated charcoal, or IV fluids to flush toxins. We use resources like Pet Poison Helpline to guide treatment and reduce serious complications from accidental poisonings.

We provide professional anal gland expression to relieve your pet’s discomfort from impacted glands—a common issue causing scooting or licking their rear. This service is essential for pets with gastrointestinal sensitivities or breed-specific risks and often performed during routine exams or wellness visits.
